Swollen feet and ankles
I am recieving
Zoladex
once a month. Over the past 3 or 4 months I have been suffering from swollen feet and ankles. Pressure on the área leaves a deep impression. My creatonine levels were normal in a recent blood test. Any thoughts on possible cause?

Endo back??
Had
zoladex
for 3 months after op. Had my first cycle again in May 21 and since June I've been getting intense abdominal pains on and off - the pain comes on suddenly and my tummy feels rock hard especially high up around the belly button area.

Zoladex + Bicalutamide
So, as my body builds up a resistance to
Zoladex
and my PSA continues to rise, will adding Bicalutamide bring about a noticeable improvement. If not, what would be the next obvious step? What would be the best choice to replace
Zoladex
?

Zoladex
Hi everyone, I’ve so far had minimal side effects from
Zoladex
injections, however, had my fourth one two days ago and haven’t felt well since. Vomiting, nausea, dizziness and headaches. I don’t want to contact GP because I’ve been doing so well. Anyone any advice ?

Can anyone tell me what my notes mean?
In the mean time i'm on
Zoladex
and Tibolone. Having found my notes, can anyone please decipher them for me into English I understand, and then tell me whether I should be with a general Gynae, of a more specialised Endo consultant. They are from 3 seperate laparoscopys

Trimodal Therapy
Tolerating
Zoladex
ok. Start IMRT July to include pelvis and lymph nodes. Followed by LD brachy based on confirmatory TRUS. I can see no advantage to SBRT over IMRT? Clinic does not do MRI !! (Canada healthcare system). I will get privately and provide for OAR boundary definition.

Zoladex and mirena removal - blood loss?
As I am young, he has put me on
zoladex
with tibalone to see how my body copes with the HRT as I will need to take this for a prolonged period of time. I had a one month
zoladex
injection and forwards the end of this month, started bleeding.

Zoladex side effects
I have the
Zoladex
injection and I have experienced painful ovulation (headache, cramps, sore lower back) that I never had before. Has anyone else experienced something similar?

Why are cardiac effects different for GnRH agonists and antagonists?
I've always been troubled by the observation that GnRH agonists (like Lupron, Gosarelix,
Zoladex
, and Triptorelin) had a high risk of cardiotoxicity while GnRH antagonists (Firmagon and Orgovyx) did not. Why should they be different if they both lower testosterone?

How do you manage your side effects and weight on zoladex?
So I'm afraid that
zoladex
is going to make things worse. My question is how do you deal with it? I can't cut my calories much more since I already eat about 1500, and to lose weight I have to go to 800.

Migraines
Hi, Last year when I was on
zoladex
I would get seem to get a migraine nearly every month when I should be due on but obviously because of the
zoladex
I did not come on.

Zoladex and Tibolone
They have offered me
Zoladex
and tibolone and gave me a leaflet for
zoladex
but said to look up tibolone. From the way they described it,
zoladex
will put me on medically induced menopause but the tibolone is hormone replacement and will counteract any side effects.

Zoladex increase in PSA
After being on Bicalutamide since May 2020 I switched to
Zoladex
as my PSA had increased from 0.9 to 3.8 in April. I expected my PSA to drop below the 3.8 but my result this week came out at 6.9. Testosterone over the last month has dropped from 19.3 to 0.7.

Does taking HRT reduce the side effects from Zoladex?
Hi, I'm thinking about starting
Zoladex
to manage my endometriosis pain but I'm worried about the side effects such as depression and anxiety. I'm 46 and have severe endo so am close to menopause. I've been told that taking HRT alongside
Zoladex
reduces some side effects.

7 months on! Fallen out with my Drs! Told them to F off!
It’s impossible to know if I have an infection or not on
Zoladex
, because normally for something like an abscess you’ll get night sweats and transient fevers! Well I get hot flashes and night sweats on
Zoladex
. Bloods atm don’t show infection but my heart rate was 140 because my pain was so severe!
